16 I summon my servant, but he does not answer,

though I beg him with my own mouth.

16 I called my servant, and he gave me no answer;

I intreated him with my mouth.

16 When I call my servant, he doesn’t come;

I have to plead with him!

16 I call my servant, but he gives no answer;

I beg him with my mouth.

16 I call for my servant, but he does not answer,

even when I beg him with my own mouth.

16 I call unto my servant, and he giveth me no answer,

Though I entreat him with my mouth.

16 I called my servant, and he answered not; I entreated him with my mouth.

16 I call my slave, but he doesn’t answer, though I beg him. 

16 I call for my servant, but he does not answer,

even if I beg him with my own mouth.

16 I call to my servant, but he gives me no answer;

I must myself plead with him.

16 I call to my servant, but he does not answer;

I must personally plead with him.

16 I send for my servant, but he doesn’t answer.

He doesn’t come, even though I beg him to.

16 “I call to my servant, but he does not answer;

I have to implore him with my mouth.
